Choose according to your operating routine rather than sound output. Both systems produce a similar sound level; timing, firing patterns and power requirements are the main differences.
Mechanical · MS6 and ThunderGuard
Set the interval manually from 1–20 minutes using the precision gas valve. The device fires once at each set interval. No battery or charging is required. Gas pressure from the propane cylinder primes the mechanism. The magneto system generates a spark that ignites the gas and produces the blast. The separately sold TMR01 timer provides one opening and one closing time. For example, it opens the gas supply at 08:00 and closes it at 17:00.
Coverage: Average 50,000 m²Effectiveness may vary depending on terrain, slope and surrounding obstacles.
Electronic · Pro Basic and PRO3
Automatic operation depends on the model: PRO3 supports start and stop times for six separate operating windows within a single day; Pro Basic offers day, night and 24-hour modes. Select 1, 2, 3, 4 or a random number of shots per cycle, with fixed or random intervals. A rechargeable battery is required. A compatible solar panel, sold separately, can support charging in the field, depending on sunlight and usage. Suitable for professional applications requiring greater control over operating schedules and firing patterns. The 2-metre wired controller allows convenient adjustment without standing next to the device.
Both models operate on a 12 V, 7 Ah battery and support the optional TRP01 rotating tripod and SP01 solar panel. The battery requires charging; the separately sold solar panel supports charging in the field. Both models have a CR2032 battery on the control circuit board.
Coverage: Average 50,000 m²Effectiveness may vary depending on terrain, slope and surrounding obstacles.
Choose mechanical models for simple, battery-free operation, or electronic models for more flexible timing and firing options.

MS6 or ThunderGuard?
MS6
Brass, free-cutting steel and sheet metal
ThunderGuard
Free-cutting steel, plastic and sheet metal
MS6 uses brass, free-cutting steel and sheet metal in its mechanism assembly; ThunderGuard uses free-cutting steel, plastic and sheet metal. ThunderGuard's enclosed housing helps prevent flying stones from damaging the bellows and protects the mechanism against rodents, rain, splashes and dust. Different materials and construction account for the price difference; ThunderGuard offers an economical alternative.

PRO3 or Pro Basic?
Pro Basic and PRO3 share the same exterior design but have different electronic control boards and functions. Pro Basic is the basic electronic model; PRO3 offers advanced programming and control options.
Which electronic model suits you?
Operates during the day, at night or both. Select 1, 2, 3, 4 or a random number of shots per cycle. Specific start and stop times or separate daily operating windows cannot be programmed. An economical choice for essential electronic functions. The 2-metre wired controller allows convenient adjustment without standing next to the device. The blast interval is adjustable from 1 to 60 minutes.
Program start and stop times for up to six separate windows within one day, for example 08:00–10:00, 12:00–14:00, 17:00–19:00 and 20:00–21:00. Use 1, 2, 3, 4 or a random number of shots in these windows. Additional features include a 16×2 LCD, shot count display, service menu and software updates. The 2-metre wired controller allows convenient adjustment without standing next to the device.
Single-button remote:Optional — sold separately · 1 km
Smart remote control:Optional — sold separately · 8 km
Both models provide a low-battery warning. Choose PRO3 for scheduled operating hours, or Pro Basic when day/night selection and essential electronic control are sufficient. Both models operate on a 12 V, 7 Ah battery and support the optional TRP01 rotating tripod and SP01 solar panel. The battery requires charging; the separately sold solar panel supports charging in the field. Both models have a CR2032 battery on the control circuit board.
